About Me

I specialize in an area of medicine called physical medicine and rehabilitation. This means I help patients recover function that they have lost due to a variety of injuries and diseases including stroke and traumatic brain injury.

Doing what I can to help patients return to their family and lives after these potentially life-altering brain injuries is extremely rewarding.

The thing I enjoy most about working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is collaborating every day with fantastic physicians, nurses and therapists to help our patients recover and gain function as quickly and safely as possible. This team approach to patient care is not only great for patients, but also makes coming to work enjoyable.

Dr. Rosenthal is an excellent provider. Very thorough and caring. He even looked ahead in my chart and noticed that central scheduling had scheduled a future appointment incorrectly and brought it to my attention. This saved me from making a trip to the incorrect doctor, wasting time and resources. Dr. Rosenthal is paying attention to detail and helping patients navigate the OSU Health system w/better ease.

Discussed a recent med addition and determined if it was helping, and if the dosage needed to be increased.

Did not provide acceptable solution to presenting problem. Left me in the hallway - I did not know how to exit to lobby. Was insincere, ungenuine. Did not show care for my presenting problem.
